Trafficstarted out in the mid-60s with Steve Winwood, Dave Mason, Jim Capaldi, and Chris Woodafter Winwood left The Spencer Davis Group. From the beginning, they were quite popular in their native England, though success elsewhere was slower in coming. Their first three albums combined psychedelic rock with elements of folk and soul music. Around 1971, Mason left for good (having been in and out of the band from the beginning), and the the band experienced a variety of personnel changes. The resulting band added some jazzy elements to their style, and the compositions tended to stretch out over longer lengths.
